I couldn't stand the Calcium either. It was the worst. I bought some caramel chews (Bariatric Advantage) and they are SO MUCH better.

I'm going to finish the chewable multis, but then I need something different. They're a close second in nastiness to the calcium chewables.

Part of the problem is the chalky taste that stays with me for hours. Part is that everything is SWEET flavored, and I'm sick of sweet. Sweet shakes, sweet Vitamins, sweet Popsicles, sweet Jello, sweet sweet sweet.

Sick. Of. It. All.

(Sorry for the rant. Just reaaaaaally depressed lately over it all)

I use Flintstones complete with Iron. I have the liquid Multivitamin but I hate it so I don't take that. I used to take the calcium chews but they were too sweet for me. I am 4 months post op so I now just take the Calcium pill.

I just ordered multivitamin capsule from Bariatric Advantage, 3 a day and just swallow! Let's see how it goes. Now I have Bariatric Fusion chewables , I don't like!

Hi I had my surgery on April 21,2014. I just had my labs done. I take 2 flintstone Vitamins, 1 in the morning and 1 at night. Bariatric Advantage chewable Calcium carmel flavor. Yummy! It is my sweet treat everyday! Highest dosage b-12 sublingual., and extra Vitamin D liquid form. Everything tested just fine. Although my weekly Protein needs to be higher. So working on that.....I am not tolerating meat very well. So premiere protien shakes, tofu, edamame,and fage greek yogurt.

Sometimes it is hard to eat tummy pouch drama!

I found it at barimelts.com. Looks like you can get a sample pack of the multi, Iron, B12 and Calcium. I'm going to try it! It says there all natural.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
